By aslakhellesoy:

I suppose using stop in production (I assume you're using shutdown hooks?) is the polite thing to do.

The use case for async start/stop is the ability to wait for complete start/stop in a different thread than the one kicking it off. This might be a little speculative, but it "feels" right to me. It's possible to do other things while the server is starting/stopping so I guess a very minor speed gain is the use case.

Any thoughts on what the proposed change might break?
